KB892130 & KB934238 Fail

I have been using Automatic Windows Updates for years with no problems. Now
since 20th february they are failing with error codes 0x80200010 & 0x80242006.

Has anyone any ideas?

Is there any one place in Microsoft Support where I can find the error codes
and their meanings?

KB892130 is the WGA check and most likely is failing to install the
ActiveX component due to interference from security software.
KB934238 will continue to fail to install if .NET Framework 3.0 SP1 has
not been installed or it is not installed correctly.

For KB892130, visit the Microsoft Genuine Advantage – Diagnostic Site

If no joy, you can receive direct assistance from MS for KB892130 from

If .NET Framework 3.0 SP1 is installed, you can run a tool to verify
that it is installed properly:

There is a ReadMe included that explains how to use the verification tool.

Try this thread. Seems to be a recurring issue for folks.
